Thumbs Up for the Blackberry

Or actually, Blackberry related surgeries are up?


In a previous post we warned about Blackberry addiction, now Breitbart.tv are reporting that there has been an increase in surgery and discomfort in “Crackberry addicts” thumbs.

Those addicted are advised to “remember to see your hand specialist”.

Hmmm. Only in the US?

Blackberry – further warnings of “addiction”

Source: The Age: Addicted to your Blackberry

We posted a note about internet addiction disorder just the other day and how excessive sms was possibly a related symptom…

Now there’s belief that Blackberry users are becoming addicted – and more workaholic. They’ve even given it a nickname – “Crackberry”.

It was originally thought that the ability to keep up with your emails etc whilst out of the office or travelling was to be a godsend. But now they’re discovering that instead of it being a time management tool used especially in downtime, that Corporate junkies are working even more hours – finding their Blackberry an irresistible, indispensable extension of their arm.

Of course, this works well for employers!

As well, in case you haven’t noticed the current hard sell, it appears mobile phone service providers have also realised the Blackberry’s consumer appeal. Of course to use your Blackberry as it’s meant to be used, you also need to lock into their high data plans. Hmmm…

Covers: Fashion, style, colour, versatility – KROO Multi provides it all

KROO Multi's
It’s not often that you come across a product that you really like AND that can provide so much versatility.

And yet, that’s exactly what I found with the KROO Multi pouch.

See for yourself.

“What do you need?”

  • I need a handy little mobile phone pouch that I can hang off my handbag or my belt – so it’s easier to find when it rings
  • Well, I need a cover for my Creative Zen MP3, but don’t just want a boring silicone skin
  • Nah, I’m after a stylish protective case to carry my iPod around – something that doesn’t “scream” iPod so keeps the thugs away
  • I want to be able to carry my PDA on me to meetings, without being too obvious
  • For my birthday, Mum & Dad got me a Sansa Sandisk, but they didn’t get me a cute pouch to carry it in
  • I’ve had trouble finding a phone pouch that fits today’s phones – Nokia slides, Sony Ericsson Walkman’s, Motorola’s
  • I’m travelling. How can I hang my Canon IXUS digi from my belt and not become a fashion tragic?

If only I could find a cover that could do ALL of these things..

Stop looking! Enter stage:

“KROO Multi”

  • Soft-to-touch but sturdy neoprene (like lightweight wetsuit material)
  • A press stud closure to keep your valuables safe and a loop to attach to your bag, belt or wrist
  • Also comes with a shoulder strap girls, so you can add your lipstick and ID and take it out on the town ;)

Oh yeh – and you even get a little change from a $20
